At the beginning of the trip here, airport security spent more time checking my backpack than I spend packing it. At the end, landing in Manizales was the first time I’ve been on a flight where the degree of mountain dodging would have qualified it as a "difficult" level in a computerized flight simulator. It’s my first time in Colombia and it’s been great so far.

Short of RMS, I don’t know many attendees. If you’re going to be around, get in contact with me or just find me and introduce yourself.
